I personally don't know anything about the plugin package you mention, but
have you tried using/installing the official Nagios plugins available at:
http://www.nagios.org/download/download.php


check_smtp works just fine:  check_smtp -H <host_name>

I assume you've tried running the plugin by itself vs. running it through
Nagios?  If the plugin by itself is throwing errors, you might want to
contact Kyle.
